Love and Information

Someone can’t get a signal. Someone shares a secret. Someone won’t answer the door. Someone’s not ready to talk. Someone is her brother’s mother. Someone hates irrational numbers. Someone got a message from the traffic light. Someone’s never felt like this before. In this fast moving kaleidoscope of over 60 moments of intimate whispers, philosophical exchanges and life-changing revelations, more than a hundred characters try to make sense of what they know. In her groundbreaking new play, the prolific Caryl Churchill pushes through societal firewalls and live-streams the life-long desire for human connectivity. A look at “our civilization’s lust for information, our inability to process it, and our loss of secrecy and privacy” (Gothamist) in a theatrical experience like no other.
